They need to recheck this schedule. It doesn't make sense.

Sunday morning!!!

Sunday, June 13

8am - 11am - All Non-Pro / Semi Pro Downhill Race

That's really kinda cool - you get 3 days of practice....

What's the "Super Downhill"?

I believe it's Super D. Super D is a 8-12 minute race, less technical than a DH race with some uphill sections.

Well duh. I was used to them all being on Saturday. They're using different terminology too.

I wonder what they're gonna use for the Super D course? That could be fun.

If memory serves...its supposed to be a mix between MTNX and DH. 4+ riders at the same time, less technical downhill trail (more than likely some slope runs). There would also be the possibility of some climbing involved..it was introduced with the free-ride(2 ring) bikes in mind, 5"-7" in travel. I was doing some research on it and it looks like the average times so far are in the 10min range. Some pros are pulling -8min, and some others are pulling 20mins!.

Sounds like it would be fu to watch and race..kinda like busting the trails with your friends....I mean, don't you race your friends on fullblown DH trails?

It would be interesting to see where ShowShoe sets this up....
